I had seen the idea on Pinterest from The Country Cook and knew I had to try it myself.
I made mine with Red Oreos with Valentines in mind to make them more festive looking, but you can do them with any kind of Oreo (as you can see below).
Here is how you can make it as well…
Oreo Pudding Poke Cake Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix (and all ingredients on box)
- 2 boxes Oreo Pudding
- 4 cups milk
- 1 package Oreos crushed
Instructions
- Make cake as directed using a 9x13 pan.
- While cake is still semi-warm, poke holes into your cake. I used the end of highlighter.
- Make pudding as directed on box and pour over cake.
- Sprinkle crushed oreos on top.
And I’ve also made it with regular Oreos, which tastes exactly the same, it just doesn’t have the red. And what’s great about this recipe is that there are so many different kinds of Oreos these days that you can change up the flavor a bit as well as add a little color depending on what Oreos you use. 🙂
This cake was so simple and tasty. Everyone loved it.
I’ve had people ask where to get the Red Oreos, and they are a seasonal item. I found mine discounted at Target in January. I’ve also seen Pink Oreos and want to get some of those too for other Valentines goodies.

I’m making this today for my brother’s 23rd birthday…thanks so much for the recipe; I can’t wait to taste it!!! xo
Let me know what you think. I hope you LOVE it, and hope it’s easy for you. 🙂
Kristyn,
Just letting you know that my brother absolutely loved this cake for his birthday! It was so easy to make, & is definitely going to be a classic recipe in my book. Thanks again 🙂
YAY!! So glad to hear that. Thanks for letting me know. It’s just so easy and good, it’s hard not to want to make it again. 🙂 Have a great St. Patrick’s Day! XO
I found your recipe on Pinterest and was going to make it tomorrow for my bible study small group, but I can’t stop drooling over the picture so the cake just came out of the oven! My husband keeps asking if it’s ready yet! We are so excited to try it! Thanks for the recipe! I’ve never made a ‘poke’ cake before but this is just too easy to not try! Yum! 🙂
So glad!! Anxious to hear what you thought…. 🙂
Delicious!!!
Yay! So glad you liked it. 🙂
When making this, do you let the pudding set first before putting on cake?
Thanks!
Excited to make this for a baby shower I’m hosting tomorrow. However, I don’t know how you manage to prep in 5 minutes….you have to prep the cake, prep the pudding, crush the oreos, and then put the cake together. 5 mintues is a drastic underestimate.
Did you make this yet? 5 minutes may seem drastic, but it took me only 5 minutes to get the cake in the oven and have the oreos crushed (I literally took a rolling pin to them in one minute). And I didn’t prep the pudding until the cake was done, so didn’t technically include that in the prep time.
Making this for my family for Valentines Day! Looks so good. I can’t wait to try it!
My daughter wants to make this for the “Kids Bake Off” tomorrow at church. We were planning to put it all together tonight and leave in fridge until tomorrow (noonish), but now I am wondering if we should wait to do the pudding on top until the morning…thoughts?
